Application: EMW Zinc-Magnesium Steel in the Solar Industry

In the rapidly growing solar industry, steel plays a crucial role. Its strength, durability and adaptability make steel an ideal material for the manufacture of solar energy infrastructure and equipment.

Steel Makes a Significant Contribution to the Following Areas:

Structure and Stability: In the construction of solar mounting systems and support structures, the durability and strength of steel provide a solid foundation.

Efficiency and Reliability: In components such as inverters and junction boxes, steel ensures a long service life and high performance.

We demonstrate through specific application examples how EMW steel products are used in the solar industry.

Versatility of Steel Products in the Solar Industry

Steel is a versatile solution that can be ideally adapted to the requirements of any project. At EMW, we offer steel products that enable a wide range of applications within the solar industry.

EMW steel coils are indispensable in the manufacture of numerous solar components, including:

Solar Mounting Systems and Support Structures

The strength and durability of steel make it an ideal material for the manufacture of solar mounting systems and support structures that must withstand extreme weather conditions.
 

Inverters

EMW steel coils provide the foundation for robust and reliable inverters, ensuring the safe operation of solar installations.
 

Junction Boxes

Steel offers the high strength and durability that are essential in critical solar system components such as junction boxes.
 

 

Slit coils and blanks are used for components such as mounting brackets and support structures. Circular blanks are utilised in components that require a particularly high degree of precision and reliability, such as bearings and fasteners.
 

Advantages of EMW Steel in the Solar Industry

Steel is already highly valued in the solar industry due to its strength and durability. One of EMW’s major advantages is the wide variety of steel grades we offer. Our customers have access to both standard and special grades, primarily hot-dip galvanised, electro-galvanised, cold-rolled and hot-rolled steels. This enables us to provide the right solution for virtually every application.

Do you require coils, slit coils, sheets and blanks, or would you like to make use of our steel trading service? We also offer a comprehensive range of services to support your requirements.

Safety and Reliability Through EMW Steel

Zinc-Magnesium Steel in the Solar Industry

Perforated Metal Sheets Made from Zinc-Magnesium Steel for a High-Alpine Photovoltaic System

Magnelis is a metallic steel-coated product featuring a chemical coating composition of zinc with 3.5% aluminium and 3% magnesium. This coating provides up to three times greater corrosion resistance than galvanised steel. One of its key advantages is comprehensive corrosion protection through the self-healing properties of cut edges.
